No, I wouldn't consider. It's so much easier to Dockerize every application. And I'm running about 10 services on the single instance, so it's a lot cheaper too.

How do you prevent issues with potential traffic spikes and such (with running 10 services on a single instance) (this is probably a dumb question... most of my experience is on the frontend)?

[mmarian]

I don't :) I've just delayed thinking about it until I have a service that actually does have that spike, which hasn't happened yet.

It looks like the CapRover devs have a solution https://caprover.com/docs/app-scaling-and-cluster.html but I haven't tested it.
